Can anyone tell me if capital gains is classed as earned income and if it needs reporting as such if you claim carers allowance .  

Thankyou ?

    Hi @ellie14 :) Welcome to the community! It's great to have you here.

    Just to let you know, I've moved your post into the carer's allowance category.

    Hi,

    If you mean interest on your savings then no it doesn't. Only earned income over £128 after deductions affect Carers allowance.
